What Dreams May Come...

Do you have any recurring dreams/themes?

I do. It's the one where I'm getting dressed for school. More specifically, I'm getting dressed for High School. And I can't figure out what to wear. I change outfits, or parts of outfits, repeatedly. I'm running late due to this crisis of clothes, and yet I keep changing. It's an awful dream because being late is one of those things that stresses me out. Who wants to be stressed out in dreams?! Not me.

There's a variation on this theme, one that's a little more applicable to my life now. In this variation, I'm packing to either leaving college and heading home, or leaving home and heading to college. And I can't pack right/fast enough and I'm running out of time. Or I can't find something. Once again, it's a panicky stressful dream.

I think that the worst part is that I've never been late to high school. And as for the college dream, I've never had a problem of not leaving on time because I always pack in advanced. Gah. The only time I've ever forgotten something was over the summer when I forgot my apartment key. We were coming down to drop a bunch of stuff off and to make sure my apartment was ready for me to move into. We were one street away from the one I live on when I realized..."Oh hey guys...I don't have my key." And it was a Sunday so the office wasn't open for me to get my spare. Boy, did I feel dumb. Luckily I was only dropping stuff off and not moving in.

Back to the topic at hand: I hate stressful dreams because they really put a damper on my day.
